Having been the founder of a highly awarded creative & design agency and worked for 15 years as a Creative Director, Richard Holman now spends much of his time writing and speaking about the creative process, inspiring people (and brands) to have better ideas.

His workshops are a unique blend of practical activities, inspirational lectures and illuminating curios curated from a lifetime of creativity. You can listen to some of his talks from international festivals and conferences here.

Richard has run creative workshops for Eurosport, Sky, ITV, SVT, Turner, Fox, E! and A&E among others. He is a regular contributor to Creative Review magazine and hosts the podcast The Wind Thieved Hat.

He believes that after love, creativity is the most value attribute
we human beings possess.

Tony Linkson originally trained in Graphic Design at Central Saint Martins and worked in design, direction and branding for many years, beginning at the visual execution end of the industry and ultimately running teams as a creative director. His psychotherapy training at Spectrum dovetailed with his brand consultancy projects and he found his core interest in the strategies behind visual expressions, increasingly working with brands and organisations (and the people inside them) to identify their essence and help them shape their behaviours accordingly, empowering them to communicate clearly and effectively. He now works as a psychotherapist – with people from all walks of life, and as a coach – primarily with creatives and artists of various kinds. He also writes about therapy and creativity.
